"This isn't the first time some major power ripped Kosovo away from the Serbs. But the Serbs always get it back sooner or later -- historically, it's been when that major power overextends themselves and finds messing with the Balkans to be too costly, and it has usually proved to be that major power's undoing."

"Very true."

The Ottoman Empire, Austro-Hungary, and Nazi Germany all met their fate in the Balkans when they overreached themselves and messed with Balkan politics. This is why I wanted to the US to stay out of there and not take ANY side, not even the Serb side. There is just some kind of hoodoo on that place when it comes to major powers messing with it.

I know that many think, "It will be different this time" Ding, ding, ding -- I don't think so! Hillary may have just lost all hope of winning the election based on lying about what? Bosnia! The curse continues -- and I couldn't be more pleased with who got the hoodoo this time!
